Quercus Park is enormous, there’s plenty to do, and even more to see. 

So we’ve put together a guide to ensure you take on Agfest like a pro. 

Let’s start with the basics..

Agfest is held at Quercus Park at Carrick. 

Located about 20 kilometres from Launceston, the park is on about 80 hectares of farmland. 

Tip: Search ‘Agfest Field Days’ in Google maps, instead of ‘Quercus Park’, and you’ll be on your way to agriculture heaven.

Agfest will be held from May 3 to 5. Gates are open from 8am to 5pm daily. 

What a mainlander question. It always rains at Agfest.

You can say Agfest attire is somewhat like the Launceston Cup – it’s all about the shoes and hats. 

Dressing appropriately is key to making it through your day dry. Sturdy, flat boots are a must, also don’t forget your raincoat and something to keep your head warm – hat, beanie, whatever tickles your fancy.
